As we watch another summer wedding season slide away from view, I get the joy of seeing all the beautiful big days that have happened over the past few months land in my inbox. It never ceases to amaze me what an incredibly talented bunch of suppliers we have in Essex and how many awesome couples there are who are dedicated to rocking their day in their own way. As a self-confessed nosy parker, seeing all of your incredible weddings is the best part of my job – flick to page 36 to see this issue’s pick.
If you’re prone to wanderlust, turn to page 119 to check out our favourite honeymoon spots. I was lucky enough to head to the ultimate luxury destination: the Maldives. I know, I’d hate me too!
This issue we’ve also rounded up some of the best local transport options to help you arrive in style (page 57) and we’re sharing some catering tips from local experts (page 63). Warning: Don’t read if you’re hungry!
If you need any help with planning, got a burning wedmin question that needs answering or you simply want to shout about a brilliant Essex company – get in touch!

Stock Brook Manor
Stock Brook Manor is set in 275 acres of breathtaking Essex countryside. Inside and out it seamlessly blends elegance and style. With a design inspired by architect Sir Edwin Lutyens, it’s a fine example of an English country manor.
The reception suites are spacious and blessed with natural light, while wooden floors and neutral décor means it can suit any wedding style.
There’s an abundance of event spaces available. The Wedding Lawn (300 guests) has a luxury pavilion for al fresco nuptials. The Garden Room (140 ceremony guests and 300 reception guests) overlooks the manicured grounds and benefits from a beautiful Victorian fireplace. The romantic Rosewood Suite (200 guests) has soft coloured walls, huge windows and private access to a secluded garden.
The Ballroom (350 guests) has all the facilities and special touches needed for a grand wedding. It boasts panoramic views, a bright wooden floor, air conditioning, a large feature skylight and fully equipped bar.
All couples have a free menu tasting and they receive the services of a wedding coordinator.
